19th C Oil on Panel Presumed Hudson River School Landscape in Birds Eye Maple Frame color spectrum All this allows the box

All this allows the box to close up super tight

it feels as if it contains the wisdom of the universe in the spiral of its shell

as is exemplified on one of the two sleeves

which looks to have been used for quite a substantial period of time by a real painter

and pops all the more for the creamy white trim

19th C Oil on Panel Presumed Hudson River School Landscape in Birds Eye Maple Frame color spectrum All this allows the boxJust a beauty of a painting, 19th c. Hudson River school I believe, and all the better for being executed on wood panel, which I think always lends oil paintings an extra radiance and sense of specialness. Perfectly presented in a birds eye maple frame, which I believe is quite likely original to it. All in excellent condition, depicting a quintessential tree framed view with sailboats at center and mountains in distance; lovely and very transportive.
